The Buddy System


After all these years, Chet and Ted had it down to a science.  Chet would pretend to read a letter from his Dad, and Ted would start in slow.  If something developed from there, well... Betty and Elaine weren't due home from the Junior League 'til 4:30.  Some things had never changed, not since that first magic summer at the Charlotte Watson Memorial Presbyterian Bible Camp back in '56.

    1. I aim to please...even though I'm seen more Arthur Miller than Mailer.

    3. Obviously, I was at least one glass of wine into the evening. Miller was exactly who I meant. At least I didn't say Gore Vidal or William Buckley.

      And I'm seeing a bit more Colin Farrell than Kline on second glance.
